Wu Zhang Province, the second Generation of Land Reclamation: developing three-dimensional planting and breeding Industry to lead the Countryside to become Rich

The rubber forest is stacked verdant, the green waves are surging, and the rubber field of Changshan Farm is full of vitality. Wu Zhang, 49, has lived on a farm since he was a child. After graduating from high school, he returned to the farm as a worker and joined the rubber planting team. He still manages more than 60 mu of rubber plantation. As an excellent representative of farm workers, the authentic "second Generation of Land Reclamation" was awarded as "Party member breeding expert" by Zhanjiang Agricultural Reclamation Bureau in 2011, won the "Zhanjiang May 1 Labor Medal" in 2012, won the "Guangdong May 1 Labor Medal" in 2014, and won the "National May 1 Labor Medal" this year.

Take the lead in setting up a breeding base

In 2000, Wu Zhang Province found that Changshan Farm and Changshan Town, which are located in hilly areas, have great market potential for the development of aquaculture. Starting from raising 10 local pigs, after years of hard work, they have now become famous local farmers.

With the help of the favorable conditions of the production team close to the reservoir, Wu Zhang province explored and developed a three-dimensional culture model of "raising pigs and raising fish". Feeding fish with pig manure and waste from pig pens not only solved the hygienic problems of pig houses, but also saved the feed input of fish culture. the cost of capital is reduced and the economic benefit is improved.

Wu Zhang inspects the fish ponds several times a day to learn about the feeding of ingredients in each pigsty and the lactation of piglets. When sows give birth, they often stay up all night. In order to overcome the technical problems existing in production practice, Wu Zhang Province repeatedly participated in the training of young workers in land reclamation and exchange meetings on farming, learned lessons from large farmers from other places, and bought a large number of books to read.

In recent years, the area of pig houses in Wuzhang province has been expanded to 2300 square meters, the area of fish ponds has reached 350mu, and there are 30-400000 fish fry annually. In 2015, more than 3500 pigs were produced, with a net income of more than 1 million yuan and a net income of more than 500,000 yuan from fish farming.

Wu Chang Province never forgot his neighbors when he got rich. Led by him, many farm workers tried to raise pigs and fish, forming a breeding base. For families in need, he first raised pig fry and fish fry on credit. Wu Zhang province unreservedly taught aquaculture technology, management technology and epidemic prevention technology, constantly expanded the market, led the neighbors to become rich together, and set an example for Changshan Farm.

Inherit the spirit of a new generation of land reclamation

"in growing rubber, there is an urgent need for a large amount of high-quality farm manure. Farmers and retired workers of the production team have actively responded to the farm's initiative to provide fertilizer and donated fertilizers from their own pig farms and fish ponds." Huang Wenqing, the current secretary of the party committee of Changshan Farm, told reporters that by collecting manure from pig farms and extracting silt from fish ponds as farm manure, they have effectively supported rubber planting on the farm and provided a guarantee for the rapid growth of rubber seedlings.

The spirit of hard struggle and pioneering land reclamation has been reflected in the people of Changshan Farm. While planting rubber, we should develop the aquaculture industry, raise start-up funds through various channels, drive workers' families to get rich, form a pattern of diversified development of rubber, aquaculture and other industries, and promote industrial transformation and upgrade. the living conditions of farm workers, such as housing, roads, and drinking water, have been significantly improved.

Since the resumption of organizational system in 2008, Changshan Farm has actively responded to the call of the Ministry of Agriculture to vigorously develop natural rubber. Changshan Farm was founded in 1958, located in the northwest of Lianjiang City, bordering Bobai County, Guangxi, with an area of more than 24000 mu of arable land. At present, the rubber planting area of 15000 mu has been completed, of which the first batch of more than 2500 mu is about to be harvested.

The farm acts as the economic and cultural development engine of a region and undertakes the historical mission entrusted by the state. Li Xiwei, the current director of Changshan Farm, said: "the enrollment rate of farm schools is constantly increasing, and more and more students are admitted to key middle schools every year, and the medical standard of farm hospitals is getting higher and higher, providing better medical services for workers and workers. We have reason to believe that the development prospect of Changshan Farm will be better! "
